Phew...
That was a lot of work! What a tremendous response, we managed to raise over $500.00 to various charities around the community. I'm hoping this giving spirit will continue, no matter how little you may have, you always have enough to share a little.
These will be heading to the post office today and tomorrow. I think it's about $1000.00 worth of yarn give or take a little. Of course, I didn't think it through on my end and forgot about postage costs! Yikes..we might have to set up a charity to cover mailing fees, some of these packages are going all the way to the UK!
I have contacted pretty much everyone to let them know they made it to the list. If you have not heard from me, drop me a line. I have 3 folks that I'm not sure about. The rest of you should be getting your envie in the mail sometime soon!
Well, and thank you for your generosity. It was really a lovely thing to offer up.

Hi, Got my yarn yesterday. (I must have been one of the three you were talking about because I didn't receive an email) The yarn is beautiful thank you so much! Is there a way that I can get you the money to cover the postage? You have been so generous and you shouldn't have to cover the postage also.
